Abstract: A controller (208) in a communication device (106) receives a request, from a process operating in the communication device (106), to subscribe to a data routing service that is managed by the controller (208). In response to the request, the controller (208) assigns a destination identifier to the process and adds the process and the assigned destination identifier to a routing table that is stored in a memory (212) associated with the controller (208). Data subsequently received from a data source (114) is routed to the process or to one of multiple communication ports (214, 216, 218) by the controller (208) by reference to the destination identifier, or the absence of a destination identifier, stored in the routing table.

Title: Melanocortin-4 receptor deficient cells, non-human transgenic animals and methods of selecting compounds which regulate body weight
Inventor: CHEN HOWARD Y
IPC: C07K14/72
Filed: 2000-11-13
Abstract: Cells and non-human transgenic animals have been engineered to be deficient in the gene encoding the melcanocortin-4 receptor protein (MC-4R). These MC-4R  deficient transgenic animals can be used to select for and test potential modulators of MC-4R. This data allows for methods of screening for preferential MC-4R modulators which effect body weight through modulation of both metabolic rate and food intake, as well as associated methods of treating various disorders associated with inappropriate regulation of body weight.

Title: System and method of processing mpeg streams for file index insertion
Inventor: ZETTS JOHN MARK
IPC: H04N21/84
Filed: 2001-09-13
Abstract: A method, apparatus and article of manufacture is provided for automatic insertion of a compressed GOP offset table within a previously encoded MPEG  video file, for frame accurate random access of each individual video frame in play-from-offset mode. The method creates a compressed GOP offset table having an entry for each GOP header of every video packet of the MPEG video file, and modifies the MPEG video file by inserting the compressed GOP offset table before the MPEG video file as at least one padding packet, thereby preserving the MPEG compliance and compressed audio/video data of the MPEG video file.  The method further has a step for estimating a number of padding packets needed for the GOP offset table, thereby limiting the MPEG video file reading to a single read.

Title: 3-spiro-cyanin fluorochromes and their use in bioassays
Inventor: HOLPERT HANS-JURGEN
IPC: C09B23/02
Filed: 2001-09-03
Abstract: The invention relates to sterically shielded, stabilised fluorescent dyes based on symmetrical or asymmetrical 3-spiro cyanins and to their use as labelling molecules in analytical methods. The inventive fluorochromes are characterised in particular in that they exhibit a significantly reduced tendency to aggregate as a result of the introduction of the bulky spiro hydrocarbon substituents and thus enable a high degree of coupling to the target molecule, without any fluorescence quenching by quench effects being observed. The fluorochromes have a high quantum yield and are therefore eminently suitable for use as fluorescent dyes, in particular as a NIR  fluorescent dye for the coupling or bonding of biomolecules for use in bioassays. The analytical methods cover all methods, in which biomolecules are detected with the help of fluorescent optical procedures.

Title: Method and system for single-action personalized recommendation and display of internet content
Inventor: SMITH GEOFF
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2003-04-11
Abstract: A method and system for single-action personalized recommendation and display of content via the internet. The recommendation is given by a server system and received by a client system. The content itself has been previously recommended to the server system by the users of the client system. Client system recommendations to the server system are also invoked with a single-action. Recommended content is referred to by a URL. Users can rate content to the server system using a single-action. The server system performs recommendation calculations using user-specific information such as user preferences, demographic data, content rating history, and content-specific information. The content rating history of other users may also influence these calculations. Client systems display recommended content directly to the user in response to only a single-action.

La cellule comprend un canal de potassium (K) et une Na/K AtPase (une pompe Na+). Un colorant fluorescent est déposé dans le puits. Le colorant fluorescent est sensible au changement dans le potentiel de la membrane pour permettre la mesure optique du potentiel de la membrane cellulaire. Pour pouvoir être identifié, un bloqueur de canal Na+ est ajouté au puits et un courant de stimulation passe à travers la cellule avec une intensité suffisante pour générer un potentiel d'action avant et après l'ajout du bloqueur de canal Na+. Cela permet de mesurer optiquement un changement de potentiel de la membrane cellulaire.

Filed: 2003-06-02
Abstract: A computer-based system is used to communicate between a central location and distal locations to allow submission of bidding information on a project or elements of a project. A project manager (e.g., private or public organization, commercial or residential developers, general contractor, architect, etc.) establishes a website where potential bidders on a project or request for bid (RFB) can submit detailed bids. The bids and associated information are submitted in a defined format and enables the submission of exceptions in the bidding process. The system organizes individual bids according to elements of a project and can identify bidding errors and red flag extremes in bids. The system can categorize and organize bids for the project manager, but does not render decisions.
